Bond & Surety
General Information We represent your company. Brown & Brown is one of the ten largest insurance brokers in the world yet one of the very few that actually concentrates upon serving small and medium sized contractors and U.S. businesses. As one of the nation's leading surety bond brokers, we provide your business with the essential services and money saving resources most big brokers reserve exclusively for their largest clients and that most agents simply can't provide. Unlike other large brokers, our decentralized structure ensures your company receives responsive and attentive service from local professionals dedicated to your account. At Brown & Brown, we represent your interests and serve as your company's advocate to obtain the best surety bond program available. We always represent our clients in the surety company selection process and serve as their advocate during bonding negotiations. Why choose Brown & Brown? Because of our size and scale we have access to virtually every surety bond insurance company doing business in North America. Brown & Brown places more than $400 million dollars in performance and payment bonds for our clients every year. We have the clout to negotiate with many different surety companies so that your company gets the most competitive rates and most attractive bond terms available. Our Bond Department professionals have significant "in-house" authority with many leading surety bond companies allowing us to act quickly to meet your needs. While most agents will offer you just one quote (or at best just a few choices), we as your advocate, show you all your options. Only then can we help you understand and select the most competitive and best choices for your company. Unparalleled Financial Skills. Surety companies evaluate you on a given set of criteria which closely affect your surety and bank credit. That's why we provide insightful analysis and advice specifically targeted to these areas. We consult with you about how to respond to their questions and help you provide the detail that makes the difference in getting a competitive bond program. Our role is to serve as your partner in polishing your presentation and image. We also provide suggestions to simplify obtaining bonds in the future.  | "No" doesn't mean no to us. We help many new clients get bonds written after they were told they couldn't get a bond. |
| At some point, many companies and contractors find themselves in a weakened financial condition due to unfortunate economic, professional or personal circumstances. At Brown & Brown, we understand these circumstances and know just how to help. Our range of flexible, innovative products and services - including accounts payable management, mentoring programs and collateral - make it easier for you to get the bonding you need, when you need it most. |
WE CAN HELP WITH: - Backup surety
- Largest job ever bonded
- Environmental bonds
- Large job / work on hand after fiscal year-end loss
- Large job outside your normal radius of operation
 | By using our Accounts Payable Management program, we help clients who are not bond eligible get bonds and win work. |
From general contracting to the most typical or unique artisan contractor, we understand the complexities involved in bonding a wide range of industries. Our client base includes hundreds of general, street / road, utility, mechanical, electrical, flooring, and environmental contractors. There is hardly a specialty or niche contractor with which we don't have experience, including glaziers, golf course contractors and more.  | Are you getting 24-hour bond approval service?
